What can you say about the story of Blair Betts. After suffering a post season concussion with the New York Rangers in spring of 2009 Betts's career was in a haze. The Flyers took a stab at the long time 4th liner and threw a try out contract his way. Not even a year later and Betts was tallying points in the Stanley Cup Finals.
Now 31 years old Betts is known for being one of the top defensive centers in the league. He can play against any team's top gunners and has the heartless ability to block a shot without even a flinch.
